Madison sat on a fallen tree in the far reaches of the camp's perimeter watching for anything to show up that she could fight. She was frustrated with how Chiron had chided her for allowing Percy to escape camp because she knew that he knew just as well, Percy needed to be on that quest. She was nearing the end of her twenty-four hour watch period when she noticed guards beginning to walk back towards the lake back in the camp "Where are you guys going?" Madison shouted, wondering if they'd seen something. Madison sighed as she got up from her post, knowing full well she'd get an earful about it, to see where the men were going. As she got closer to their posts, she could hear a sweet song being sung and it sounded like it was coming from the lake. "Guys, those are Sirens," Madison shouted at the male guards, warning them to stop in their paths but it didn't work, the siren song was puling them closer. Madison only knew one thing about Sirens and that was that they're song couldn't be heard from underwater but how was she going to get these men under water? She had to think quickly. She knew the well was not that far and she began using her demigod strength to drag the guards and toss them into the well where they wouldn't be able to hear the song anymore. "Hey," one of the men yelled as he came to his senses, "What gives?" Madison rolled her eyes and ran back toward the lake in attempt to grab any stragglers. But as she got nearer to the lake the song seemed to change and take on new lyrics:
Forbidden love is hard on the heart
Release your secret and find peace
The one you seek is half man and smart
He shares your feelings and they will not cease
Although he is immortal and you shall perish
it is better to have loved and be cherished
Madison was being pulled in by the Sirens song and couldn't help herself as she began walking, zombie like, toward the lake. Just as she was moments away from certain doom, an arrow flew past her head and landed in the heart of the first Siren, stopping the song and snapping Madison back into reality as she pulled her sword. She fought back the Sirens until they finally vanquished but turned back to see Chiron on the bank with his bow and arrow. Madison's cheeks immediately turned red as she hoped he had not heard the words that the Sirens had been singing to her. "You're watch is over, Madison. Get some rest. That was very quick thinking on your part to get the men into the well, though they are not pleased. Instead of running to face them on your own, you should have come for me. Centaurs can hear the words they sing but we are immune to their temptress ways," he explained, revealing two important pieces of information to Madison. She nodded in reply, "Thank you for showing up," she said weakly as she moved past him, as quickly as her feet would take her, and went into her cabin.
